Hi All,
WG 3.0
Ubuntu 18.04
local tz: Europe/London
I have followed the configuration instructions and now have WG++ grabbing 7 days worth of EPG for the DSTV channels. I am however encountering a few separate issues:
1. The EPG dates are shifted a day forward: e.g. a program due to air on the 17th April 2020 at 06h00 is shown in the EPG grab as 202004180600 (ie. 18th April at 06h00)
2. The popup parsing functionality does not pick up any additional details, I have remarked that section out to prevent the (?) appearing after program titles.
3. mdb fails for a number of reasons, firstly calls are made to ./Mdb and not ./mdb (Linux is case sensitive), I have created links mapping ./Mdb to ./mdb to compensate for this, but it still fails (might be due to not being able to match any description to an IMDB or TVDB entry?)
When I view the EPG on the provider website, in LIST format, the provider includes the previous day's last few programs in the list, eg. The listing for 16th April reads as follows:
https://guide.dstv.com channel SuperSport 1
21:55 ESPN 30 for 30: Of Miracles...
23:20 ESPN 30 for 30: Slaying the Badger
00:40 How the Netball World Cup was Won
02:00 BOX HL: Robinson
Webgrab starts reading the times from 21:55 and assumes that is for the current day, then increments that date (+1) for the entries beginning with 00:40 (in this example). There is not specific pattern as to how many entries are carried over from the previous day, but they seem to range from between 1 and 2 programs.
Any advice would be appreciated on how to filter out the first few "incorrect" entries for that date?

I think u must be using a old ini?
is it encrypted,regardless add firstshow=now to site {xx} line,see screenshot.
this will tell webgrab to skip all show from before midnight.
Thanks for this, the two additional parameters in the ini line fixed the problem!
Any idea as to why the system does not parse the popup data (extended information). All program titiles end with a (?), which I can fix by * out the
index_urlshow {url|http://guide.dstv.com/popup/||| style| style}
index_urlshow.headers {customheader=Accept-Encoding=gzip,deflate}
lines
(Further, this is the old ini and not an encrypted one), I am testing the system and have not donated to receive a key as yet,
